AH HeroQuest International Shipping Status

[elvyler]

Hey, just wondering what the international shipping status is for the new HeroQuest.

Lots of reports of people in US receiving their copy. Heard from at least one person who has received in NZ.

Any backers from Canada, UK, or AU received their copy yet?

I too would like to know this. Good to hear at least one person has gotten it outside the US.

[ Now we are talking here about people who originally ordered it that way, as opposed to North Americans who ordered extra copies and forwarded them on. ]

Mainly asking about people who pre-ordered or backed directly, but would also be interesting to find out from people who receive it from either a third-party shipping companies or a friend in the US who sent it to them.

Correct me if I'm wrong, just want to make sure I've got the facts straight, AH HeroQuest was available the following ways:

US and Canada - Directly from Hasbro Pulse
UK - Pre-order through Zavvi
NZ and Australia - Pre-order through EB Games

Rest of the world would have had to use a third-party shipping company to ship it directly from the US.

One issue that I know about from the backers outside US is that it's difficult to get shipping and fulfillment information. Our only source would be from the Pulse website or a FedEx account. I heard that the Pulse website is very out of date, saying unfulfilled when the Pulse app had more up-to-date information saying that orders are fulfilled. Unfortunately the app is only available in US. I'm not sure how accurate the FedEx information is either, I don't have access to check.

I'm not a big computer expert here, but wouldn't it be possible to use a VPN (only for something legit of course), or is that not how it works with apps?

This is funny because I'm an IT Professional, so I should know this. Usually the only VPN connections I use are between my office and my device, which are always in the same country.

Yes, it is possible, and I just signed up for one to try it out and yes it works. Now to cancel before the free trial expires and I actually have to pay for it...

According to this Reddit post, Canadian Mythic backers can expect to wait until after American Heroic backers shipments have finished.
